SEEMS EVERYONE HEARD ABOUT IT All want to try new drug that dries up corns so they lift out. Good news 'spreads rapidly and druggists here are kfept busy dispens ing freezone, the recent discovery of a Cincinnati man, wliieh is said to loosen any corn so it lifts out with | the fingers. A quarter of an ounce costs very little at any pharmacy, but is said to be sufficient to rid one's feet of every hard or soft corn or callus. You apply just a few drops on the tender, aching corn and instantly the soreness is relieved, and soon the corn is so shriveled that it lifts out without pain. It is a sticky sub stance which dries when applied and never inflames or even irritates the adjoining tissue. This discovery will prevent thou sands of deattTS'STfTmatly from lock jaw and infection heretofore result ing from the suicidal habit of cutting corns. f( < Why Not a Piand or Player in Your Home Now?
